Yes. I don't find "most people do it" to be a convincing excuse for personal flaws.

  Would you find that "most people commit felonies (without harm)" to be convincing evidence of policy flaws?
  • LLWM 12y ago
    That claim is logically impossible. If most people were committing felonies without harm, that would lend plausible deniability to harmful felons, thus indirectly causing harm.
    • supdog 12y ago
      Or the claim is highly probable, if bad policy was systemically painting peaceful people as felons. If so, what then is the root cause of the harm?
      • LLWM 12y ago
        Asking about the root cause of the harm only has meaning if there is harm being caused.
        • supdog 12y ago
          Indeed.

            Glad to see you've come round.

              Have I? Or have we?
